The project will be partially funded from the Skate Park Funds 2018/19, additional capital works funding in the 2019/20 budget. Council will also work towards obtaining grant funding as required.
Council is proposing to initially investigate the condition of the existing skate park at Ulladulla Sports Park, through engagement with external expertise. This will identify the existing condition of the park and any remediation works if required. Once this report is finalised, Council staff will advise on the findings to Council by way of a Councillor Briefing. This will identify the next steps and may include either remediation work to the existing park, providing an extension or a combination of both. Council will engage the broader community at this stage of the project.
